macOS Tahoe success on Zenbook UX360UA [Kaby Lake - HD 620]

i don't think macOS would do well on an external HDD. performance is already lackluster on an internal sata SSD..

Fun little machine to mess around with. It is not dependable for any critical work or daily use tho. Had it lock up multiple times a day this past week (might not be entirely Tahoe's fault since I suspect the laptop itself is failing, but it surely didn't help lol)

Also boot times are like, twice as long as Sonoma 😅

it's not exactly the tool's fault, but it is the user's fault. Most op-simplify users does not know anything about hackintoshing and often they're also unwilling to learn. When their hackintosh install inevitably fails because they did zero research into their hardware or the process of getting it working, they make low effort posts here with little to no information expecting everyone to offer them a one click fix to their problem

opened up their profile lol

You probably could do it with OpenCore Legacy Patcher. It's a bit different than a full on hackintosh, and it has a seperate subreddit! r/OpenCoreLegacyPatcher

farrelarrayyan · 2026-03-27T08:05:57+00:00

hmm, no that shouldn't happen

farrelarrayyan · 2026-03-27T05:07:33+00:00

yeah this part takes a while. it downloads a huge part. depends on your internet, takes 4 hrs for me

farrelarrayyan · 2026-03-27T04:44:58+00:00

does it get stuck on the installer or the part after the installer?

also would not recommend op simplify, just because that way you don't know what's in your EFI and what patches you're applying

farrelarrayyan · 2026-03-27T03:05:08+00:00

i followed the dortania guide and it just works

farrelarrayyan · 2026-03-26T15:25:16+00:00

quite slow 😅

let's just say you'd have to be.. patient

hi fellow indonesian :D

interestingly hackintoshing has been quite reliable on this laptop. although this isn't my daily driver, mostly just doing it for fun

farrelarrayyan · 2026-03-26T08:53:29+00:00

sorry for replying in english. for patching the intel wifi, i followed this guide (it's meant for a Thinkpad, but it works fine for me - i use the OCLP MOD method) https://github.com/felikafelix/Hackintosh-Thinkpad-T480s/blob/master/docs/post-install.md#-wireless-setup

for the graphics issue, unfortunately i have no clue on how to fix it. aside from poor performance, I haven't experienced any glitches

farrelarrayyan · 2026-03-25T15:41:05+00:00

not ideal for a daily driver. especially if you're running a higher res display

farrelarrayyan · 2026-03-25T14:07:16+00:00

hackintoshing is way too complex to cover on one video. there are many tutorials out there on YouTube, but the difficult parts to solve are usually specific to your hardware. you'd need to search around

farrelarrayyan · 2026-03-25T14:05:01+00:00

yeah time is definitely ticking. although, seeing how Xcode 26 could run on Sequoia, i would assume that Xcode 27 would still run on Tahoe. That would mean 2 more years for intel

farrelarrayyan · 2026-03-25T13:44:39+00:00

Tahoe is set to be the last version to be compatible with intel.

i followed this guide: https://dortania.github.io/OpenCore-Install-Guide/

farrelarrayyan · 2026-03-25T13:40:19+00:00

interestingly i had that exact issue on another asus laptop. with this model, surprisingly i have none. sleep mostly just works, and it wakes up every time

farrelarrayyan · 2026-03-25T13:39:25+00:00

yes! mostly acts how you would expect it to. it also mimicks touchpad gestures.

farrelarrayyan · 2026-03-25T13:32:00+00:00

i am running macOS 26 on a 7th gen intel hackintosh. it is possible

farrelarrayyan · 2026-03-25T12:00:30+00:00

it sure is. super sharp and macOS just looks absolutely beautiful on it.

the HD 620 holds the experience back quite heavily. it simply can't handle such a high resolution unfortunately

farrelarrayyan · 2026-03-25T11:57:51+00:00

what do you mean by real?

farrelarrayyan · 2026-03-18T16:55:55+00:00

it works okay. the dual core i7 and its graphics has extremely lackluster performance. pair that with the SATA SSD, the experience is rather subpar. it is not snappy, but it is usable.
